Bois de Cise
Highlight • Forest
This coastal wood was originally a wild wood which became a place for hunting with hounds. Bois de Cise was then sold in the form of lots, by a visionary who would stop at no means.
Today, it is a charming vacation spot and stroll, best discovered on foot along the small paths and wooden stairs that line the site. Very pretty villas bear witness to the prosperous years before the First World War.
Like Victor Hugo in his time, don't forget to go to the panorama. Fantastic viewpoint where you can see the Baie de Somme estuary.

La Cise Cliff
Highlight • Natural Monument
Flint horizons are stratigraphic markers. On the cliffs of Ault, the regular flint band called Seven Sisters is recognizable and characterizes the boundary between the Middle Coniacian and the Upper Coniacian (around 87 million years ago). The boundary between the lower and middle Coniacian is marked by the Shoreham 2 marl level, which is more difficult to identify. These lithostratigraphic markings allow in particular the correlation of distant deposits, such as between the Normandy and Picardy coasts, or between the French and English coasts.
